Also what the heck is this
Trainer VT-4 probably
The more I look at it the more it doesn’t make sense to me ngl.
This is clearly a trainer tank. You can see the turret lacks most of the sensors and the gunner sight is also missing. It’s using a simplified turret without any composite armor which is why they added two weight simulators on the turret cheeks.
I see, so this is for export as well?
PLAGF doesn’t use the VT-4 so.
Most likely
Yep, the PLAGF uses the ZTZ99A while the VT-4 is solely for export purposes
ZBD-04B with a modified hull, as well as different turret, also has a similar APS found on the ZTZ99A
Has been spotted not long ago
it’s the new airborne IFV.
Missiles from China often change over time. Take for example the CM502KG, earlier on being slightly bigger than now. This could be the same case here
any details? I only remember it’s 45kg, no other information about it has changed.
and such big difference between the new one and HJ-10, it should be a new missile.
That is a big change though, could only think that unless they did fundamental changes like guidance types or motor. Could be SA missile as well, if it’s IR.
missile type won’t change, it’s still something very similar to HJ-10
